Description
The primary purpose of this course is to provide participants with an introduction to the basic concepts of some common advanced wastewater treatment processes and systems. The purpose of advanced treatment, also known as tertiary treatment, is to further clean the effluent from the secodary processes. Since these tertiary processes generally follow secondary treatment, they are considered to be advanced processes. While not all wastewater treatment plants use the advanced processes discussed in this module, the national trend is toward treatment beyond basic secondary treatment to produce more environmentally friendly effluent. Therefore, it is important for wastewater treatment operators to become familiar with advanced wastewater treatment processes and systems.
